The Portland Police Bureau Major Crimes Unit is seeking the public's assistance in identifying a teenager wanted for an armed robbery that occurred in the Hazelwood neighborhood of Portland, Oregon. The incident took place on Wednesday, September 30, 2026, at approximately 3:34 p.m. at the Burnside Market & Deli, located at 10128 E Burnside Street. During the daytime incident, the suspect brandished a firearm while robbing the business. Upon arrival, a dozen officers from the East Precinct responded to the scene but were unable to locate the suspect immediately. Employees at the market reported being shaken by the event. Following the initial response, detectives and officers conducted an extensive search of the surrounding neighborhood and along the nearby TriMet MAX Blue Line light rail tracks. Despite these efforts, the suspect managed to evade capture and remains at large. On October 21, 2026, police released surveillance images and requested community help to identify the individual. The suspect is described as an African American male in his teens. At the time of the robbery, he was wearing a black jacket with grey sleeves that featured an 'A' emblem on the chest, along with a distinctive black top hat. Investigators have not made any arrests to date. The public is urged to review the provided surveillance images and come forward with any information that could help identify the suspect. Tips can be submitted through the online 'Submit a Tip' form or by emailing crimetips@police.portlandoregon.gov, referencing Case No. 26-285793. The Portland Police Bureau continues to investigate the case and encourages anyone with information to contact them.
